German Divorces The US

German leader Angela Merkel no longer considers the US a friend, according to her party’s campaign material produced ahead of a September election.

The German Chancellor has had an often tense relationship with President Donald Trump since he took office in January. Earlier this year, after Mr Trump said he would pull the US out of the Paris Accord and following the UK’s vote to leave the EU, she said European countries could no longer rely on their traditional allies.

Now Ms Merkel appears to have demoted the US in election material prepared jointly by her Christian Democratic Union (CDU), and its its Bavarian sister party, the Christian Social Union (CSU).

We have a MASSIVE trade deficit with Germany, plus they pay FAR LESS than they should on NATO & military. Very bad for U.S. This will change
